Lao PDR education country report
Analyses from the second Lao Social Indicator Survey
This report analyses the education-related findings from the second Lao Social Indicator Survey (LSIS-II) undertaken in 2017. It combines this analysis with policy and practice recommendations from two workshops and multiple consultations with relevant stakeholders, including the Ministry of Education and Sports (MoES), Ministry of Labour and Social Welfare and development partners. Education-related data from the survey are analysed in terms of a series of key research questions concerning early childhood education (ECE), access and completion at primary and secondary levels, literacy, information and communication technology (ICT) skills, child labour, early marriage, and parental involvement, as well as the enabling environment in terms of data and education sector planning.
